Crisco works for lube,smells like frenchfries!
I generally use a beeswax, paraffin and grease mixture that I buy already mixed. It is expensive but a little goes a long way and it works good. I “pan lube” with it... I melt the mixture then pour it into a pan with the bullets standing up and then pull them out after the mixture hardens which leaves lube in the grooves. I can see how Crisco would be easier to apply, but my concern would be that the Crisco would melt at fairly low temperatures.
